Dr. Michael Masters, UFOs Could Be Us From the Future

Dr. Michael P. Masters is a professor of biological anthropology at Montana Tech in Butte, Montana. He received a Ph.D. in Anthropology from The Ohio State University in 2009, where he specialized in human evolutionary anatomy, archaeology, and biomedicine. Dr. Masters spent the following decade developing a broad academic background that unites the fields of anthropology, astronomy, astrobiology and physics, to examine the premise that UFOs and Aliens are simply our distant human descendants, returning from the future to study us in their own hominin evolutionary past. His new book, Identified Flying Objects: A Multidisciplinary Scientific Approach to the UFO Phenomenon, challenges readers to consider new possibilities while cultivating conversations about our ever-evolving understanding of time and time travel.

In this episode, we discuss Michael’s research and what inspired him to do this research and write the book.

Alan Stivelman, Director of Witness of Another World

Witness of Another World is a recently released documentary about Juan Pérez, an Argentinian gaucho (cowboy) who claims to have had an incredible encounter as a child. His close encounter garnered media attention when it occurred and was investigated by famed UFO researcher Dr. Jacques Vallée.

In this interview, we talk to the creator and director of the film, Alan Stivelman. Alan tells us why he decided to make a UFO film, how he came upon Juan, and how he was able to get Vallée to participate in the movie.
